Chapter 577: Chapter 306 You’re Quite Soft
“`
There was no other reason… He simply took a malicious pleasure in it, wanting to start collecting some ‘interest’ from Shen Jinyue, his biggest creditor.
It was also a way to ease her tense mood and divert her attention.
“Of course it is… fostering couple’s rapport, we were way too fake.” Xu Qingyan said with an expression of disbelief, “Am I messing around? I’m handling your affairs.”
“Alright.” Shen Jinyue’s face turned a bit red.
Perhaps it was because she felt there truly was no couple’s rapport between them, standing together like sworn enemies. Or maybe she thought it was just about reading a borderline novel, merely ten pages long.
...
Read it without emotion and get it over with, just think of it as humoring that pervert!
“I like you, smooth as a fish in the river…”
“Does anyone actually talk like this?” She couldn’t help but mock, “People in love are not brainless perverts, you’re kind of disgusting.”
“Please continue reading, and put some emotion into it, Miss Shen.” Xu Qingyan urged.
To Xu Qingyan, this was a battle destined for defeat. Just as he had said earlier, rebelling was too late now; the deed had been done, Old Deng wouldn’t care.
Either shock Old Deng with an ultrasound report, or really scare him.
Unfortunately, Shen Jinyue hadn’t agreed. Even at this point, she was still considering Old Deng. But then again, Old Deng had gotten a son in his old age, his little side account outside.
All of his vast wealth belonged to Xiao Deng, and Shen Jinyue had more money than she could possibly spend.
If Xu Qingyan were Old Deng, he probably wouldn’t pay much attention to his college-age daughter either. Perhaps in a few years, preoccupied with spoiling his grandchild, he wouldn’t even remember his foolish daughter.
If failure was inevitable, then might as well see it through to the end.
He leaned back in the chair, feet propped high on the desk. Looking out at the sizzling summer day outside the window, with the air conditioning blowing in the room, he comfortably squinted his eyes.
Shen Jinyue nodded, her face troubled, thinking that reading some greasy text wasn’t that big of a deal—but as she kept reading, she realized she had been too hasty.
“~The originally dry place became moist~”
Slap! Shen Jinyue abruptly smacked the book down onto her thigh, her face flaming.
What kind of romance book was this? Even a running scene was written so erotically. What kind of disgusting, creepy ingredients did the author have? Too perverted!
Xu Qingyan did not call a halt, so Shen Jinyue had no choice but to pick up the novel and continue reading aloud.
“Mmm, ah… cold outside, hot inside, slide straight to the waist.”
What kind of outrageous lines were these where cooking like a housewife was written so lasciviously? They were clearly intended to lead one’s thoughts astray! Damn it!
After reading in fits and starts for an hour, Shen Jinyue’s brain was completely muddled, her face so red she couldn’t stand it, and only with a trembling voice did she barely manage to finish the last page.
Finally, on the last page, she saw the author’s signature, “Carefully selected by Xu Qingyan.”
Without a doubt, this person was a complete pervert!
The young girl indignantly threw the novel on the bed, shivering with anger. Was this still human?
“You wrote this!”
“Of course not, I selected it from the internet.” Xu Qingyan said, “Flip to the next one, there’s a fifteen-page one. Once you get the hang of it, you can stop.”
It was too embarrassing, reading out loud such racy material!
Shen Jinyue’s toes curled, furious and wanting to kill the messenger this instant, wishing she could throw her phone out the window. She had just read so loudly, thinking it was something serious.
“I won’t read anymore!” She rebelled, her chest heaving slightly, “Is it really your hobby to listen to such risqué readings?”
“Not really, you read it very dryly.” Xu Qingyan commented slowly, “You skipped the panting narrative, causing the plot to feel disjointed.”
“Is that my fault?” She asked in amazement.
“Isn’t it?” Xu Qingyan countered.
Shen Jinyue: “….”
Although she was very reluctant, she still grudgingly read another book. This time she read it with emotion and smoothness, and it took only half an hour.
“Can I stop now?” Shen Jinyue squinted, tilting her head back and taking a sip of bottled water.
“Yes.” Xu Qingyan leaned back in his chair and casually turned on the computer in front of him, “You don’t have to read, but anyway, with your shyness, you won’t last a second in front of your dad.”
“Then let him find out! You better have a backup plan.”
At that, Shen Jinyue couldn’t help but clench her teeth.
“I’ll read!”
“Then keep going, I’m listening.” Xu Qingyan said lazily as he played on the computer, “I’m not really a pervert, just training you.”
“Someone like you doesn’t seem like you’ve ever been in a relationship.”
Shen Jinyue surreptitiously pulled a face, thinking if this could really be called training?
The phrases were a bit too strange, all that jargon she had to enunciate one by one. At first, she didn’t understand what they meant, only later realizing something was amiss.
She read with many pauses, and when she looked at Xu Qingyan, she realized he wasn’t really listening. But whenever she stopped reading, he would glance at her.
Forget it, she was all in!
When she finished reading, Shen Jinyue waved her hand awkwardly, pretending to fan herself.
“Done reading.”
“Oh, let’s start the rehearsal then.” Xu Qingyan seemed distracted.
….
Zhang Hangnian was a university professor at a film academy and a part-time film critic. When he wasn’t teaching, he’d search for films online to watch.
At night, at home.
After speed-watching a terrible movie at double speed, Zhang Hangnian’s face wore a look that said ‘just as I thought’.
As a film critic, even if he knew a certain director had made a terrible film, he would still watch the whole thing at triple speed, driven by the director’s fame.
After all, without watching, he had no right to talk and couldn’t write articles or make videos.
